Where it grew

Bhiwapur, Nagpur, Maharashtra

The Bhiwapur red-chilli belt in eastern Nagpur is one of those small, irreplaceable terroirs — known for deep red colour, medium heat and a clean sweet underlay you don’t get from the bulk Guntur or Byadgi crops. The belt has been shrinking. We make forward-buying Bhiwapur a core commitment of the brand: contracted volumes, prices 15–20% above mandi, and direct settlement to the farmer’s account.
